    What's special

    Large pantryBreakfast barRoomy walk-in closetStainless appliancesTile backsplashQuartz counters
    There's a particular kind of ease that comes with living walking distance from so many things, and 257 1st Avenue delivers it. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home sits directly on the PATH Trail just outside downtown Avondale Estates, and is a 10-minute walk to shops and restaurants, and just a 15-minute walk to the new Town Green, The Dale, coffee, breweries, and so much more that keep this corner of the metro buzzing. Inside, the main level flows with an open kitchen, dining, and family room with a soaring two-story vaulted ceiling that fills the space with light. The kitchen was gorgeously renovated in 2021 and features quartz counters, cabinets stacked to the ceiling, a tile backsplash, stainless appliances, large pantry, and breakfast bar. Hardwoods run throughout the main floor and are only a few years old. Upstairs, all three bedrooms share one level, including a primary suite with a double-vanity en-suite bathroom and a roomy walk-in closet. New carpet softens the second floor underfoot. The big-ticket items are handled: Roof (2024), both HVAC systems (2022), and water heater (2022) are all newer. A smart laundry room location off the garage is perfect for dropping wet or muddy gear before it reaches the house. Out back, a fully fenced yard with a wooden privacy fence offers a flat, grassy stretch for play and a flagstone patio tucked toward the rear that’s ready-made for a fire pit and good company. There’s also the ever elusive 2-car attached garage that you’ve been chasing! Walkable, updated, and minutes from downtown Avondale Estates and the Decatur Square, two of the most invested-in downtowns around. Easy access to multiple MARTA train stations, I-285, Emory, CDC, and so much more. Come take a look!
